Why overestimating? Ukraine isn't exactly the most advanced military power in the world and still, Russia needs to throw in all its material reserves and bring their economy on the brink of a collapse in order to achieve a military victory. How is this overestimating Russia?
Russiamilitary is obviously very inefficient, which means that in order to achieve the desired effect (i.e. to be effective) they have to mobilize incredible amounts of resources. Unfortunately, as compared to Ukraine, they have those resources. It is only possible to counter them with better capabilities in sufficient numbers. Ukraine receives those capabilities, albeit in insufficient numbers, but under Trump it probably won't.
(I am not touching on the internal problems of the Ukrainian military, state, society and economy, this would exceed the scope of the conversation here.)
